Emyr "Shark" Bussade Knee bar on Lennox

"Just what makes a pure grappler think he can survive with an experienced striker. Especially if that striker isn't following any particular rule set and is well aware of what the grapplers strategies are".

Leg attacks always scare the **** out of me. Probably because I don't know few people over 30 who have not had major knee surgery around here. I love combat sports, but I want to be able to walk down stairs at a reasonable pace.

From what I've seen the amount of pressure it takes to tap someone with a kneebar varies far more drastically than that of the armbar from person to person. Perhaps he just badly underestimated the strength of the guys leg and wanted to make sure he had the grip tight enough to get the tap?

There was nothing improper about Bussade's actions. It sucks to be Lennox right now, but **** happens. He thought he could power out of yet another attempt.

Calm down, it's only ones and zeros.
